The handheld gaming craze that really came into its own under the guidance of Nintendo and their groundbreaking Game Boy systems has brought us to a point where we just expect to be able to play a game in those otherwise “lost” hours-time spent waiting in line, time stuck on a bus, and even (yes) time on the toilet.
This makes sense, after all we’re not always home to take advantage of our consoles or gaming setups, but we do always have our phones with us. Of course, console and computer gaming still get the lion’s share of the attention, but in terms of number of units, the vast majority of games released and sold today are mobile games. Nonetheless, mobile platforms have become the largest platform for games. However, just because you have a smartphone doesn’t mean you want to look at it all the time: the screen is small, interface can get annoying after a while, and that’s all to say nothing of the dreaded “tech neck.” Let’s be honest, that’s practically every person in the US. This is a transition that is a long time coming and will allow more flexibility and options for anyone who has a smartphone.
You may or may not be aware that there is a new revolution in gaming that allows you to easily and seamlessly transition from your mobile gaming or app playing to a desktop gaming platform.
